From Ashes We Rise [FAWR / WIP] Upd. 30. Oct

he can covers with the Hood, like eminem :smirk:

Hey, my MC would probably be the daring type to hope someone would recognize him. Honestly, I think he wants someone to find out. I don’t think he has it in him to go out and say it. Anyways, our MC was 15 when tragedy struck ‘em. They were basically just a kid. It’s been 4 years, hasn’t it? To anyone not caring to take a closer look (which they probably wouldn’t unless evidence came out suggesting our MC was still alive and kickin’), our MC probably looks different enough that the resemblance would be waved off. Puberty’s one hell of a thing. :joy:

Troy would still recognize the MC in the park, though.

Will we be able to use his “Death Blossom” too? If so, it’s pretty badass in my opinion

Yay, death blossom
20+

who cares , a death man cant talk :relieved:

Grim talked a lot in Billy and Mandy.

To be fair Grim was also Jamaica in that and constantly failing to kill people.

To this day Mandy still freaks me out 0_0

I’ll be the usual spoilsport, and remind you to not derail too much (if at all can’t be avoided), please. :wink:

Ok, a quick note.

It came to my attention, that derailment is happening quite often now, and most of the time when I am not even here (Damn you, time shift!). @Snowpanther has done an excellent job in keeping it down should it happen, but that’s no excuse.

So please, do me and yourself a favor, and try to stay on topic. Pictures or videos are fine as long as they fit into the thread, but otherwise I would like to not have them anywhere here. You have a picture of your character? Sure, just send it in! You want to show us a picture of a cartoon/pet/other things? Nope, go with that somewhere else, please.

It is not that I dislike them, but they just have nothing to do with this thread, and it really annoys me when people suddenly start to talk about random things on this thread. So please watch yourself before you post anything. Try to think beforehand if it fits in any way what you are doing, alright?

Thanks for your time and have a nice day.

Don’t worry @Wraith @Snowpanther, I promise to stay on topic and try not to be too much of a nuisance :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:…

Nothing to fear @Wraith I’m now the night janitor for CoG and now Im now the antiderailer for this thread. :yum:

Oh my gosh, I’m so excited for this game to be fully released! :dizzy_face: I was up until 4am reading this and I had a test the next day. The story and characters are amazing and it has really pulled me in. Fantastic job to the author.

I also wanted to point out that the part where you can choose your weapon. If you choose the extendable staff, I’m surprised that Crow didn’t recognize the fighting style the MC used while wielding the staff. Unless the MC changed his/her/their fighting style.
And when you run into Troy in the park. You give a fake name, but wouldn’t he have recognized the MC’s voice?

Anyway, it’s not an important detail (or is it?) I still really enjoyed it. :smile:

Hey there and Thanks you! :slight_smile:
Glad that you enjoyed the game so much so far!

To your questions:

  • Our MC of course still knows the moves that Crow taught them all those years ago, but in the year that they are back on the streets, they taught themselves a few new tricks. While yes, most of the moves are almost the same as Crows, our beloved bird will get suspicious of our MC, the unique fighting style our MC gained in that year (more violent, for example) does not belong to our previous BB and thus, Crow doesn’t recognize them immediately.

  • Back when the MC was still BB, Troy wasn’t even around. He never personally talked with him, and thus Troy won’t recognize the MC’s voice.

Sorry that I didn’t word the second question correctly. I meant since the MC has come back with a new name, you have had a few run ins with Troy and you teamed up with him too. They exchanged words with one another. I’m surprised that he didn’t recognize it then after they ran into each other at the park.

But thank you for answering!

It could be because he doesn’t expect this “harmless” civilain to be the one hero/anti-hero/villain he only meet in rather dangerous/tense situations? Expectations have a big influence at the way we interpret things in our daily lifes.

How someone speaks makes also a difference, I guess?
I at least would while impersonating a secret/hero/villain identity (try to) sound more commanding/confident as in my civilian identity.

So that may also change the perception Troy gets from MC while they are in their civilain identity? In the sense of “Nah, they don’t sound nearly as angry as MC”…

And he certainly gets at least somewhat suspicious if you aren’t careful enough.

That is true. I see your point.

Couldn’t have said it any better :wink:
Thanks!

I wouldn’t even have thought to have given it an attempt…Oh well the party is always missed when it comes to me :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

@Wraith, there’s this one word that threw me off the rail a li’l when flirting with Stray. [From closer contemplation, you notice that he is just a tad taller than you.] :scream: It should be [From/On closer inspection…], no?

Not gonna lie, I do feel just a li’l bad about knocking the poor guy out after flirting with him, but I couldn’t follow up a cheap move like that by calling the cops on him. Do I get a cookie for that?
